This paper shows that (a) Chatterjee's rank correlation is asymptotically normal as long as one variable is not a measurable function of the other, (b) the corresponding asymptotic variance is uniformly bounded by 36, and (c) a consistent variance estimator exists. Similar results also hold for Azadkia-Chatterjee's graph-based correlation coefficient, a multivariate analogue of Chatterjee's original proposal. The proof is given by appealing to H\\'ajek representation and Chatterjee's nearest-neighbor CLT.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.08031v4","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.08031v4.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"limit-theorems-of-chatterjee-s-rank","repo_url":"https://github.com/zhexiaolin/limit-theorems-of-chatterjee-s-rank-correlation","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
